Editors' Picks: Our Favorite Things From the Week of July 26 of 12
Sleeper Hit of the Season?
Hey, have you noticed that 47 Meters Down has experienced the smallest box-office declines of any other movie in the Top 10 since it was released on June 16? Despite a critical drubbing, the Mandy Moore-Claire Holt shark-attack picture has quietly reached a $35 million tally in the U.S. after an $11 million opening weekend, and it's still holding up strong in the dailies as well. Could it top $50 mil? Whatever the final numbers are, it's already a win for upstart distributor Entertainment Studios and director Johannes Roberts, who just wrapped production on The Strangers 2.
